which r good cd-rs 2 use?
 
i use tdk which i have never had any trouble with and i think r very good.
but wen i recently brought sum bush cd-rs as they were cheap and u got 25 disks for £10 i snapped them up. but wen i burned a game and tryed it on my psx the game didnt boot up but then wen i tryed it again it did boiot up so sum times it does and sum times not could it b the disk, as i have never had any trouble with tdk? has any 1 had a problem like this?

I'm from USA not UK, but I use Memorex Black CD-R's (yes, they have black bottoms) and they work great. i havent had any problems with them so far.

Some cheap cdr's that have a light colored bottoms dont work well with PSx games. As you said sometimes they load, sometimes they dont. when selecting cdr's look for the one's that have the darkest bottom like verbatim's tdk's or sonys. Some people like the black cdr's but i haven't had much luck with them.

Hi,

Ive been using Verbatim CDRs for 3 years for all my Ps and Ps2 backups and had no problems. I have tryied some cheaper brands and they were crap. You cant go far wrong with Verbatim or TDK as they have a darkish blue colour which the laser units pick up very well.

THE DARKER THE BETTER!!!

Cheers

Dal

I would always recommend a branded cdr such as TDK (specially with LG burners), Sony, Verbatum, Pioneer and also Memorex have worked well for me.
